Celestron NexStar 5 SE Computerized Telescope

The Celestron NexStar 5 SE is a 5-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope built for both novice and experienced stargazers. Its StarBright XLT coatings enhance light transmission for brighter, clearer views of solar system and deep-sky objects. The package includes a 1.25" eyepiece and filter kit plus the Starry Night SE software download.

GoTo Mount Database and Sustained Tracking

The fully automated GoTo mount accesses a database of over 38,181 celestial objects via the NexStar+ hand control. Its single fork arm design breaks down into lightweight pieces for transport to dark-sky sites. The 6 lb optical tube and compact tripod allow repeated setup sessions without heavy lifting.

Schmidt-Cassegrain Optical Limits

The 5-inch aperture gathers ample light for planetary detail and deep-sky targets like the Hercules Globular Cluster. Its fixed focal ratio and Schmidt-Cassegrain design set practical boundaries on maximum useful magnification and field of view. The included 25mm eyepiece and star diagonal define the starting magnification range.
